Topic: Gas tank date codes (Read 154686 times)

Lots of consistent data.Here's the updated compilation. 67 has a calendar week code. 16 D 7 would be the 16th week of 67, day shift. 40 6N would be 40th week of 66, night shift.The format changed in 68 and 69 to have the week counted from the beginning of the model year. The extended 69 model year used tanks dated for the 70 model year.LOS and NOR data is intermixed and shows the same pattern.

Was doing a tank date info search and found this thread. My car is Norwood / 05E / 68 46 ... 46th week of production starting august 1st of '67. Which would be the 4th week of April 1968. Between the 21st and the 27th. Danny

I was planing to buy a new tank, but if I can find a date code I will try to save it of course. I have a big dent on it, around three inches in diameter and one inch deep. What's the best way to fix that dent? A little fuel in it and a match, or?

Thats intersting. According to the 1969 calendar and NCRS mine was built (finished?) 8/19 which was a Tuesday and the tag reads 08C. Your car was built the same week according to the calendar, on 8/21 a Thursday, but then dated 08D?

Well if I remember correctly our vin numbers are close, I don't think we compared body numbers, (yet).

I'm going off what someone told me from CRG a few years ago. They said either 8/21 or 8/22, but more than likely 8/21. My body number is: Norwood 106672. What's yours? Let me know if I'm the one that's off... I don't have the NCRS sheet.

Mine is 5,400 cars later. That seems like quite a few. I can't remember, how many did they average per day? I'd have to say that someone gave me a bad date way back when.Just realized we're hijacking this one... I'll bow out for now. Sorry gents.

Maybe my car was waiting on parts?

Just a heads up... I was a day off. Mine was final assembled Friday 8/22 (I always liked Fridays!). I broke down and got the NCRS report. My body number is 106672.
